So I Did.


Someone once said to me,

"You have a pretty face,

You should smile."

So I did.

 

Someone once said to me,

"Freckles make your face look dirty,

You should cover them up with makeup."

So I did.

 

Someone once said to me,

"You're so slim and pretty,

You shouldn't hide your figure."

So I did.

 

Someone once said to me,

"Your lips look so thin,

You should make them bigger."

So I did.

 

Someone once said to me,

"You are thin, that's true,

But you should make yourself more curvy."

So I did.

 

Somone once said to me,

"I like the way your body moves.

Why don't you come and show me?"

So I did.

 

Someone once said to me,

"You looked so gorgeous before,

But now you look so fake."

 

Someone once asked me,

"What happened?"

And I said, 

"You."
